    Where Every Voice Gets a Turn at the Mic

    At First Grapevine, we believe in lifting up every voice. That’s why we created The Bullpen—a space where emerging and diverse voices bring fresh perspectives and deep spiritual insights to the conversation.

    During the Jonah sermon series we read the entire book of Jonah in worship. We want to be a Bible reading church. We want to read the Bible together. 

    Was Jonah faithful to his calling from God? Are we faithful to our calling from God?
